I really like this guy's teaching style! The hands-behind-head resistance exercise is super easy to do at my desk - while keeping abs tight and spine neutral. I've set a timer to remind myself throughout the day to do these and the wall exercises (separate video in his series). Matt, so glad I found you!! Thank you so much!!!! Happy to be a patron via patreon. What a great idea, btw!!

I've been doing careful stretching exercises , laying flat on my bed a few times a day with my head slightly off the bed. It has been helping. Today I started floor exercise on my back with a rolled towel . I'm going to add these gentle exercises as well. I've noticed that my neck doesn't seem as short and I feel a little taller. Trying to be more conscious of my posture all day and doing gentle core body exercises to strengthen my abdomen. Thank you for this video!

Nice addition, with the resistance band! I've been doing the isometric exercises for a few weeks now - front, back, left, right, diagonally on both sides, and also a "twist" move (hand to jaw, push against as if to turn your head) - to fix a sore spot in my neck and to help my posture. It's a great idea to escalate the resistance by using a band.

I have a slight hunchback and head forward posture. It looks a little mentally challenged and all my life I got scolded for it. I'm 58 and carry my kids on my shoulders all day when walking and even on my bike ( don't do that at home, we can do it but we have learned it). My back is healthy and I can carry my kids all day without tyring. All my friends with straight backs have back pain and the usual back problems. I'm a nurse and all the time someone needs to be mobilized they call me because they heeded all the health advice and now are...ill and can't do it. I think there is more to back health than just looks. PS: a few times in my life I wanted to be a nice boy and tried to walk with s straight back. It always really hurt. Never again. But muscles are key. And most people who have problems and want to listen to 'experts' look for a trick that allows them to live unhealthy and have no problems. There is none.
